Bedford, UK. 3rd December 2016. Protesters at the 10th protestat Yarl's Wood by Movement for Justice calling for the closure of it and all immigration detention centres hold up placards and balloons, waving and shouting support to the women asylum seekers held indefinitely inside Yarl's Wood, who responded enthusiastically by shouting and waving back from the prison blocks behind the high fence, hindered by windows that open only a small crack. A few managed to wave from inside and several spoke to the protesters on mobile phones, including one woman held there for over 2 years. All thanked the protesters and told of assaults and abuse by Serco security guards who today had locked many in other wings to stop them seeing the protest and threatened those who greeted the protesters and revealed there were cases of TB in the prison.
